About Morocco

Morocco is a country in North Africa, south of Spain, with a coastline on both the North Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea. As one of the most diverse nations on the continent, it’s easy to see why Morocco has long been a popular holiday destination. The dunes of the Sahara Desert and the highest mountains in North Africa dominate the south, while a ruggedly beautiful coastline and lush plains lie to the north. Spend your afternoon strolling through the Fez medina, the world’s largest living medieval Islamic city, or simply immerse yourself in the traditional Moroccan culture in a café drinking mint tea. Wherever you go, there will be something to grab your attention in this fascinating Arabic country. Morocco is a great a departure point for a wide range of international destinations by ferry. It has a number of ports along its Mediterranean coastline, offering frequent sailings to popular cities in southern Europe.
